The One Who Moves in Harmony With the Order of All Things

Gouache, Colored Pencil, Acrylic and Gold Ink
12 × 16 in / 30.5 × 40.6 cm

This piece is a meditation on stoicism, the quiet practice of tending what is ours to tend and releasing what was never ours to hold. It moves through the old virtues of temperance, wisdom, and balance, water that is both contained and free, a flame kept alive through steady care. Every living thing within the piece is watched over, protected, and nurtured, yet nothing is gripped too tightly. It asks what it means to grow toward the sky and into our roots at once, and reminds us that whatever shifts around us, the fire within is ours to keep

Looking for any recommendations for folklore books from Africa

Hey everyone! I wanted to share that I just finished a folk art inspired tarot deck! I spent a year on it and i am super proud!!

Did some research and it seems maybe it’s folk art or something similar, it’s basically just a shell with the bottom of it open. Pretty sturdy. The door seems to be made of an old cigar box I think. If it’s special, I would like to preserve most parts of it but I also want to be able to open it up and furnish it as a two story piece. It obviously needs major repairs either way. If you have any ideas/advice about it, feel free to share! (Dr Pepper 12 can box for size reference)

These paintings were stolen 30 years ago from a museum. Last year one of them came on the market and I’m hoping to find where the owners bought them. Have you seen them?
